Singer A Pass, real name Alexander Bagonza, was left counting losses after heavy weekend rains flooded his home in Najjera, damaging property, soaking his Mercedes-Benz and submerging equipment in his home studio.
The singer opened up about the frightening experience during a TikTok livestream, revealing that he woke up to find water had flooded every room in his house.
His Mercedes-Benz, which had been parked outside in the compound, was also reportedly filled with water up to the level of the seats, adding to his growing list of losses.
A Pass said the flooding had also affected his neighbours, with more than five perimeter fences reportedly brought down by the powerful water.
The Wuuyo hitmaker blamed the disaster on a poor drainage system along the road leading to his home, claiming that residents had raised concerns about the problem months ago, but nothing had been done to address it.
“I speak out of anger. Basically, the water was too strong and it broke down the wall fences. It is all a drainage problem which was talked about months ago on our road,” he said.
The singer revealed that the floods had also damaged household property and equipment in his home studio, a development that could leave him facing significant replacement costs.
Visibly frustrated by the damage, A Pass said the cleanup alone was proving expensive, with cleaning teams having to return because of the extent of the flooding.
“My entire studio was filled with water. Imagine, I have lost things. I could easily break down and cry right now. They have cleaned this place today, and they are coming back tomorrow for the same thing. The cleaning alone is more than 700K because certain things have not yet even been billed for,” he said.
The singer’s account highlights the damage caused by the weekend downpour, while his complaints about drainage have renewed concerns over the impact of flooding on homes and property in affected neighbourhoods.
